 And no one can talk to a horse of course, September 1, 2020by deathbytroggles (Minneapolis, MN) I have to admit I was unfamiliar with this aspect of Scottish folklore and I am glad I was able to learn about it through interactive fiction. The author here has a solid grasp of the prose and was able to immerse me in the fate of the horse and the child. Though while I found this to be quite interesting, that’s the strongest emotion I felt while playing. There wasn’t enough knowledge of the characters for much pathos, and the branches of each choice were so narrow they didn’t feel like choices until the very end. Was this review helpful to you?

Sombre take on folklore, August 3, 2020MacLeod the neighbour has a kelpie - the water horse of yore - the same kind of creature that drowned the PC's aunt. Was this review helpful to you? Yes No Remove vote | Add a comment
I enjoyed Each-uisge; I liked learning this particular piece of mythology; and I went back and played the game a second time to check out what changes and what kinds of endings are possible. There are ways in which both the story and the telling could be more effective; and I feel I’m not quite the intended audience, given the young adult vibes of some of the text.
